A Janeite Sews | Anti-Racist American History of the 1890s by a Researcher and Educator @AJaneiteSews | Uploaded March 2022 | Updated October 2024, 7 hours ago.
Anti-racism is the active work towards Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion. This video is a result of my deep dive into the 1890s in the US after I made an 1890s costume, and aggravation over the conservative efforts to keep white heteronormative male history the focus and further control history educators who are trying to emphasize history from the perspectives of marginalized and oppressed people, including Black and other People of Color, Women and other genders, and the poor.
